WorldChessNetwork.com (WCN), the Internet’s fastest growing chess service, is
proud to announce an event honouring one of the greatest players, and
personalities, in the history of chess, GM Boris Spassky.   “Salute to Spassky
Month”, a WCN exclusive event, will run through the entire month of June 2003.

Each day throughout the month of June, GM Boris Spassky will hand pick one of
his historical games to be broadcast and commented on by WCN Site Professionals.
  His reasons for choosing the game, and his story behind it will be revealed to
the audience as the broadcast unfolds.

WorldChessNetwork.com is honoured that GM Susan Polgar, a living legend herself,
will be on hand to interview GM Boris Spassky via telephone LIVE on WCN.
Members of WCN will be able to pose questions LIVE to the man who battled Bobby
Fischer in the most famous chess matches ever!  All WCN members and WCN website
visitors will be able to listen to the live interview via WCN’s audio broadcast.
 This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!

Throughout the event, WCN will also be giving away, and auctioning, over $10,000
in books, posters, and other items personally autographed by GM Spassky.
Proceeds from the auction will go to a special Boris Spassky Internet chess
scholarship fund for kids.

Additional details will be posted to the WorldChessNetwork.com website and on
the WCN chess service as they become available.
